Bacterial Feeding

Natural product for bacteriologic maintenance.
Indespensible when starting a pond/filtersystem without fish.

Bacterial Feeding is a nutrient and contains 8 natural elements that are needed for the natural process. These natural elements support the development of nitrifying bacteria. Helps to break down blanked weeds and provides clear water.

  • 1 liter is sufficient for 400.000 liters pond water.

    Suited for:
  • Heated and non-heated quarantine facilities
  • Trickle systems.
  • Gravity and pumpcirculated filtersystems.
  • Natural ponds with plants.

    Pondcontents:
    Calculate the pond contents;
    Length x Widht x Depth

    Doses/Use:
    Weekly mix Bacterial Feeding in a bucket of water en pour on to your filtersystem.
  • 50 ml Bacterial Feeding is sufficient for 20.000 liters pond water.



    The Kamiac bacteria produce enzymes.
    Bacterial Feeding contains anorganic ions that act as activator. Besides that the enzymes use these activators, this is amongst others depending on fish population, feeding schedules and temperature. The bacteria multiply, causing the reduction of the enzyme production. Two weeks after the first adding of the Kamiac mixture it is advisable to ad Bacterial Feeding.

    Enzyme process
    In order to continue the enzyme process we advise the weekly use of Bacterial Feeding. (As mentioned, the enzymes use up the activators)

    What are enzymes.
    An enzyme is a protein that accelerates a certain reaction. (All enzymes are protein). Each chemical reaction in the cell is brought about by a specific enzyme. The enzymes function as catalyst. They speed up the chemical reactions and cause these reactions to take place at (lower) temperatures, at which these reactions usually could not occur. Enzymes accelerate the speed of a reaction by lowering the activating energy. In physiological circumstances the molecules almost never appear in activated state. The high activating energies could therefore be considered to be barriers, these barriers prevent the molecules in the cell to react spontaneously. Life itself would be impossible without these barriers.

    The number of enzymes known to man is great.
    Enzymes are subdivided in a system that considers the type of catalyst reaction. The combination on which enzymes are active are called substrates. Manu reactions catalyzed by an enzyme need, besides the enzyme and the substrate, another extra component to elapse this reaction. After ending the reaction, these co-factors can be found back unchanged and can therefore be considered to be an essential part of the catalyst mechanism.

    One distinguishes co-enzymes, prosthetic groups and activators.
    The activators are usually an-organic ions, these ions can bring the enzyme in a catalyst active state in different ways. For example: certain enzymes need the MG-ion (Magnesium-ion) for their activity. Other certain enzymes need the Fe-ion (Ferro-ion), Zn-ion (Zinc-ion). Without these ions the enzymes cannot be active!. The spore elements that are present in food solutions should function as activator in certain enzyme reactions. Co-enzymes and prosthetic groups are co-factors with a more complicated structure. Often the same basal structure can be recognized, namely the that of a nucleotide. They often play in important part in the energy transformation of the cel.
